Snowflake

Hello sweet bloggers,

The order for 30 cards is almost done and I will hand it over tomorrow to my friend who asked for them. It is time to give my fingers some rest now that I have turned out over 50 cards in the last three weeks.
This card has a window and vellum behind it and I have popped the top layer on foam dots after scoring them. You may wonder how many times I am going to use this JOY sentiment, well, I just love it so. The snowflake (MS I think) has been punched from a gloss silver cardstock and so has the sentiment. The rhinestones finish it off nicely.

Hello sweet peeps,

Honestly blogging is one of the nicest things that happened to me and that makes my life so good.

Down below is another CAS card made with my newly acquired Peace die cut from Sizzix. The paper is super fancy gift wrap and over the MS snowflakes I have used Glossy Accents which cannot really be seen in the picture. The silver crystals finish off the card which I do seem to like very much.

Hello bloggers,

Here is a card made with one of my new dies from Sizzix which have probably retired but are still considered new here. Lol. I have used pearly white paper for the die cut and the poinsettias have been fussy cut from a larger sheet. I have used a negative for the window and have popped it up with foam tape. The ribbon and crystals are from my stash.

Sherry on Christmas

Hello sweet bloggers,

Here is another card for the same order which has beautiful crinkled grey and gold paper from India. The topper is from my stash and so is the ribbon. I love how this card turned out so beautiful in minutes.

Hello bloggers,

This is an aperture card and I have stuck acetate in the aperture and added another card stock with an aperture over the acetate  to to give it a neat appearance from inside. The Christmas tree has been die cut (from Wonder House) and so is the sentiment which has been stuck with double sided foam tape. The pearls are from my stash - not sure whether I need to stick a pearl in the centre of the alphabet O.

I do like this CAS beauty a great deal.

Merry Christmas

Hello lovely bloggers,

Here is my card to show you for today quite similar to the one I made some weeks ago. The paper is fancy gift wrap and the grey is actually a matt silver which doesn't show in the picture. I have used a clear stamp the name of which has slipped off my mind. I have used foam glue dots to prop up the image after cutting it and mounting it on another round nestie.  Silver crystals from my stash and a few lines of scoring at the bottom finished off the card. I like the way I did the thin strips at the bottom.

With love at Christmas

Hello sweet peeps,

I made 9 cards this morning!!! And now have another 8 to go and I will be done with my order of 30 cards. 

Down below is a card I made with a clear stamp set sent by dear Sandra to me all the way from the UK. I have coloured the image with Prisma pencils.  I have layered the white image on shiny blue paper. The crushed red paper you see is actually printer paper that has been moistened with water, crumpled and then dabbed with black water colour paint. Zeenya and I did it many years ago, when she was all of six and now she is almost 14!
The washi tape is from my stash and so are the rhine stones. The sentiment is from the same set of clear stamps.
